Chic of the week #143

Hey there friends!  I have to apologize for coming in so very late with this week's chic of the week!  The summer has just begun and it's been busy.  With 2 six year olds we are on the go all the time! LOL!  Anyhow, thanks to all the players in this week's Stars and Sparkle challenge.  All the cards submitted where wonderful but only one can be picked as our chic of the week.

This week's chic is: 

Ann Marie of My Eclectic Spirit!  

Check out this great card she made:

Ann Marie please contact me at riaann1973 at yahoo dot com for your chic of the week badge.

Thanks for playing!

Be sure to stop on by tomorrow morning for a new challenge!
